A FURIOUS radio caller who was concerned about the impact of immigration and Islam on the UK was challenged on air to compare the Bible with the Quran.

Following comments from Trevor Phillips, the former head of the equality watchdog, that "liberal self-delusion" over the impact of mass immigration had increased the risks of racial and religious conflict in Britain, Dan rang into James O’Brien on LBC to argue why he was concerned about the number of Muslims in the UK.

At one point in the conversation O’Brien asked Dan what he could say to make him feel better about the situation.

Dan responded: "You can persuade me that the Islamic community in this country can assimilate."

O’Brien replied that Sadiq Khan’s recent election as Mayor of London was evidence of successful assimilation.
